# Iron Butchers

> The Iron Butchers are a homebrew Chaos Space Marine warband created in 2021 by enter.the.butcher: a predominantly Khornate alliance of Iron Warriors and World Eaters, led by Warsmith Vhorrax.

The homebrew Iron Butchers were created in 2021 and are unrelated to the warband of the same name that Games Workshop later introduced in White Dwarf magazine in 2023. The two were developed independently.
